A Study Comparing Two Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Contrast Agents in MRI of the Brain (ENHANCE)

January 18, 2008 updated by: Bracco Diagnostics, Inc

Phase IV, Double-Blind, Multi-Center, Randomized, Cross-Over Study to Compare 0.10 Mmol/kg of MultiHance With 0.10 Omniscan in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the Brain

This study aims at a direct comparison between Multihance and a validated comparator like Omniscan in a cross-over individual design in patients with brain tumors to confirm the superior overall diagnostic performance of MuliHance for this indication
